1991 NISSAN SKYLINE2.0L Petrol

The Nissan Skyline presents a currently roadworthy status, having passed the most recent MOT test on 8 March 2024 at 171,491 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend appears stable on paper, though the record shows two failed tests on 29 February 2024 and 12 July 2021 at identical or near-identical mileages, both with no defects logged. This pattern suggests administrative or presentation issues at test rather than progressive mechanical decline, and no worsening trend is evident across the available data. At roughly 35 years old, the vehicle shows 171,491 recorded miles, equating to about 4,900 miles per year, which is low for its age. The odometer moved only 97 miles between the 12 July 2021 failure and pass at 171,394 miles and the 29 February 2024 failure at 171,491 miles. Such minimal accumulation over nearly three years implies long periods of standing or very light use. The sparse record with clean advisories gives no evidence of rapid wear on consumables or drivetrain, but the gaps leave suspension and brake condition between tests unverified. A buyer should inspect the Skyline in person for corrosion on structural members and suspension mounting points, given its 1991 build and likely storage periods. The tester logged no advisories on brake discs, calipers, or coil springs, yet standing vehicles commonly develop seized calipers and perished suspension bushes that a clean MOT will not reveal. Verify the VIN and chassis against the DVSA record before purchase. Confirm the 2024 failure with no defects was a paperwork error rather than a concealed fault. Given the low mileage and sparse history, a professional inspection of underside rust and brake binding remains prudent.
